An unforgettable safari – Ndutu Green Explorers and Gilibert exceeded every expectation!
5/5

An unforgettable safari - Ndutu Green Explorers and Gilibert exceeded every expectation!

When we started planning our safari in Tanzania, we honestly didn’t know exactly what to expect. We hoped it would be special, but the experience we had with Ndutu Green Explorers was far beyond anything we imagined.

From the very beginning, the communication and organisation were excellent. Everything was clearly explained, our questions were answered quickly, and once we arrived, the whole trip ran seamlessly. Transfers, accommodation, meals, timing and all the small details were taken care of, so we could simply relax and enjoy the experience. We always felt that the company was reliable, professional and genuinely cared about making our trip memorable. Considering the quality of the organisation, service and overall experience, we felt we received excellent value for money.

But what truly made this safari exceptional was our guide, Gilibert.

Ndutu Green Explorers planned everything perfectly, but even the best itinerary would not be the same without an exceptional guide. Gilibert’s knowledge, experience, passion for his work and genuine desire to give his guests the best possible safari experience made all the difference.

He seemed to know exactly where to go, what to look for and when it was worth waiting. Thanks to him, we saw an incredible variety of wildlife, including all of the Big Five, and we were unbelievably lucky to witness the Great Migration three separate times. It was absolutely breathtaking.

Gilibert has an impressive knowledge of wildlife and animal behaviour and was always happy to explain what we were seeing and answer every question we had. His English is excellent, communication was effortless, and spending long safari days together was genuinely enjoyable. You can immediately feel that this is not simply a job for him - he truly loves what he does and puts his heart into giving every guest the best possible experience.

There were so many moments when we simply looked at each other and thought, “WOW - is this really happening?” The whole safari exceeded our expectations in every possible way. From the organisation to the wildlife, the service, the atmosphere and especially our guide - everything was simply incredible.

We can wholeheartedly recommend Ndutu Green Explorers, and especially Gilibert, to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania. If we ever return, it would honestly be partly because we would love to spend a few more days driving around the Serengeti with Gilibert again.

Thank you, Ndutu Green Explorers, for such an unforgettable experience – and a very special THANK YOU to Gilibert for making our safari truly exceptional! ❤️🐘🦁🦒

Utukufu: tailored safari experiences and incredible service
5/5

Utukufu travel has been a great service for our first trip to Tanzania! Utukufu travel was incredibly flexible and catered to our exact needs for how we liked our trip to be planned. Exaudy, the managing director was quick to reply to our questions and provided great hospitality; we were warmly greeted by him and his team when we landed. We were well taken care of by Utukufu when we hiked Mt.Kilimanjaro and even more so on our safari trip afterwards. We were lucky to have a very experienced safari driver along with Exaudy, whom both have wealth of knowledge and years of experiences as guides that allowed us to see all the animals (The Big 5 & more). Exaudy is a very responsible, professional, and driven guide aside being the company director, making our first safari trip an unforgettable experience! 10/10 highly recommend Utukufu and Exaudy. We would definitely want to continue to use their services for other countries like Kenya and Uganda for our next trip!

An Unforgettable Journey Across Ethiopia with an Exceptional Guide!
5/5

Our trip through Ethiopia was truly remarkable from start to finish, and Mulugeta played a massive part in making it so special. Having guided extensively across both the North and the South, his depth of knowledge and experience is second to none.
With natural beauty and diverse cultures, Ethiopia holds a singular status in world history and African culture. Unlike almost any other nation on the continent, its identity was shaped by millennia of unbroken sovereignty, distinct spiritual traditions, and profound historical firsts.

He was great ! Made sure we were in the best spots for viewing.
5/5

We felt very well taken care of during our time on the tour. The only negative I would’ve liked to know ahead of time was the travel time between the airport and the destination was 6 Hours. I would’ve flown if I knew that.

The best!
5/5

Such an amazing experience. Felt well looked after. Every day was better than the last and when you thought it couldnt be more amazing something more amazing happened! The guides were respectful to nature but also knew exactly where the animals would be and more importantly where they were walking too so you could get the best up close photographs. Highly recommend this travel company and I will be back again and again and again.

Brilliantly Amazing
5/5

My two-day trip from Kigali to Uganda, visiting Kisoro and Kalinzu Forest, was absolutely incredible and a truly unforgettable experience.
A huge thank you to my tour driver, Dan, who was reliable, kind and incredibly friendly throughout the journey. He made sure I was well looked after at every stage of the trip and went above and beyond to make the experience enjoyable and stress-free. I’m especially grateful for the opportunity to experience both gorilla trekking and chimpanzee trekking — two experiences that I will remember for the rest of my life. I would also like to extend my deepest thanks to Aron and his tour company for making this dream a reality. Thanks to their organisation, support and dedication, I was able to have an amazing time exploring East Africa. I’m eternally grateful for everything you did to make this journey so special. Thank you for helping me create memories that I will treasure forever!
